NY Post
Billy Ray Cyrus can’t stop trying to contact his daughter.
The country musician has reportedly been attempting to make amends with his daughter Miley Cyrus after the “Wrecking Ball” singer appeared to snub him during her acceptance speech at the 2024 Grammy Awards.
“He’s tried reaching out to Miley many times and congratulated her on her Grammys,” a source close to Cyrus, 62, told Us Weekly on Wednesday. “The kids have chosen sides, but friends are hoping the rift doesn’t last forever.”
Feud speculation surfaced when Tish Cyrus, who divorced the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer in April 2022 after being together for nearly 30 years, tied the knot with “Prison Break” actor Dominic Purcell. Only Miley, 31, and her older siblings, Trace and Brandi Cyrus, attended the ceremony at the time.
“The divorce between her parents has put a strain on her relationship with her dad and it’s been hard to connect with him in the last year,” a source told E! News in October 2022.
The “Old Town Road” singer, for his part, went on to marry Johanna “Firerose” Hodges in October 2023.
